I love developing the creative concept and strategy for brands this often includes script writing, research and campaign strategy. I’m equally happy working with the direction of an art or creative director.
-
I often produce my photoshoots. From research and logistics to location scouting and talent acquisition.
-
I have over 10 years of producing advertising campaigns that work. I have worked with profeesional models and untrained ‘real’ people and can direct both equally.

I work closely with a reliable team of Make Up Artists, Stylists, and Technical Crew who are experts in their own fields.
This is a picture of me sat on a beach in Hong Kong aged two. You can tell by my expression that I am obsessing over the flavour of the ice lolly, does it offset the flavour of my drink nicely? Does it work? The little things, they matter right? My partner would say that I’m high maintenance. I say, I know what I like.
I haven’t changed much.
As a photographer I like underdogs and triers and I like to make hero’s of them in my images. I like to make pictures that viewers can see something of themselves in. I’m interested in community, how our environment shapes us, our connection to the landscape. Story. People.
Heritage and rebellion in equal measures.
I travel widely but like my own bed.
Oh, and I’m easy to work with (apparently).
Thanks
